SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION - Coggle Diagram

- - - - It can be measured as the density of the population in a given area
      - It can 提供 valuable insights in terms of what underlies behind the spatial distribution
  - - - Dispersed
        
        发生当物体are spread out from one another
        
        suggesting a lack of interaction or a uiniform distribution
      - Random
        
        发生当物体exist in neither a clustered or dispersed pattern
      - Clustered
        
        发生当objects exist in close proximity to one another
        
        indicating underlying spatial processes or interaction
- - - - indusrtrial centres & regions 提供massive employment机会所以有high density of population. 比起农业，工业capable of supporting more ppl
    - - Growth of population directyly proportional to the development of transport facilities
    - - 城市化&population concentraation closely related to each other
      - Minimum density that an area should have to designated as urban is 400 persons per sq km
  - - - Plain areas higher density of population 相比于 mountain regions
      - Steep slope in mountain regions restrict the availability of 农业用地，交通运输的发展，工业和其他经济活动的可用土地 which may tend to discourage concentration of 人口 & proper growth
    - - 温度&rainfall重要在决定一个地区的人口
      - Climatic extremes discourage the concentration of population (extremely cold @ extremely hot & dry)
      - A moderate climate is favourable for 人口. Rainfall 提供sufficient water for potable usage & agriculture
    - - Fertile soil 支持较高的人口密度, infertile soil leads to low density
      - E.g. In northern plain of India, coastal plain有肥沃土地所以人口密度较高，反之desert soils, mountain soils, laterite soil是贫瘠土地所以人口密度较低
    - - Areas which have 足够水源但不是太多有denser population 相比于那些dry or suffer from regular drought or areas which have excessive rainfall or which may be prone to flooding
    - - 有些类型的vegetationmake the development of settlement more likely比如grasslands
      - Areas with particularly dense rainforest, coniferous forests or 植物稀少的地区tend to have sparse population
    - - Minerals让该地区的人口密度较高
